NAOMI is one of our versatile schoolmates, ' who succeeds in accomplishing the almost impossible, and whose unseliishness enables her to finish whatever she begins, whatever she seeks, she always obtains. She is a sportswoman and executive both, she possesses the accuracy of the artist and the broadfmindedness of a democrat. The cares which her varied offices imposed upon her, never marred her patience. Well filled years therefore have procured for Naomi the acclamation of unstinted praise. MARY THERESA CLEARY sr. JOSEPH, I-IARLEM DRAMATIC CLUB-'30, '31 RECEPTION COMMITTEE- 30, 31 And her face so fair Stirr'd with her dream, as rosefleaves with the air. NOT long ago we found a portrait of a typical Irish beauty, the eyes were flashing blueg within them there lay a mischievous twinkle in which we found a note of familiarity. The very gaiety of the picture made it resemble Mary. Yet, an insight into the joyousness and laugh' ter discloses something more, and infinitely liner. She is a good scholar, her girlish simplicity compels us to love her. Her optimistic cheer' fulness has been a prominent factor in the pref servation of her winning disposition. You must know her to understand. Success to you, Mary, on whatever roads you choose to travel.

Her gifts displayed so frequently may lead her to an artistic career, perhaps even to the stage. We may be certain, however, that Eleanor will face her life work with a warm interest and dauntless courage. As she achieves her ambitions, may there come only those cares into her life as will cast a further glow on her character. l l 1 CATHERINE T.

HELEN GERTRUDE CLEVELAND JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL No. 115 RECEPTION COMMITTEE-,28, '29 The pen is mightiefr than the sword. FRANK and loyal, but so reticent and un' assuming that one scarcely realizes she is there,-Helen has quietly won her way to a high place in our regard. Three years of acquainf tance have enabled us to discern her abilities. Dominant among these is her literary accom' plishments. Helen has chosen to become a teacher at the close of her high school career and knowing her as we do, we entertain no anxiety for her future pupils. She leaves Archbishop Hughes Memorial High School with the wellfwishes of all her classmates. May life smile on her and honest endeavor bring her professional preeminence.

This is a rhetorical question, for everyone from the timid Freshman to the dignified Senior recognizes the girl whose indefatigable energy has made her so prominent. Rita is justly famous for many reasons. In fact, we wonder where we ought to begin to enumerate her virtues. Her ability to amuse. heads the list. She is, besides, a thorough student, a jovial spirited girl, and above all a leader. These are only a few of the attributes applicable to her and well, indeed, has she earned them. 'I i J Twenty-five
